Can Sun Rise on Open Source Storage?

"Despite the worst recession in decades, Schaffer said
there is no slowdown in the amount of data that enterprises are
generating, so they are being forced to re-think their time-honored
data center architectures. This, he believes, will play right into
Sun's hands.

""Storage will play a critical role in Sun's success," said
Schaffer. "Sun's Open Storage approach means we can offer products
like the Unified Storage 7410 System, which delivers
enterprise-class storage at up to 80 percent less than traditional
storage solutions."

"Going forward, he anticipated further growth fueled by the
increasing attractiveness of "free" software. As well as being a
way to reduce costs, if Sun achieves the level of innovation it
expects, this could open the door to several new developments.
Schaffer hints that some surprises are in store."
